Puffy, droopy eyes and always looking tired. Do I need a brow lift or blepharoplasty? (Photo)

January 16, 2018
Asked By:rhirhik in Adelaide, AU

I'm 23 and my eyes are always puffy, droopy and I struggle to see properly without raising my eyebrows up. I always look tired and grumpy and my eyebrows have become very uneven over the years. They're the worst in the morning, sometimes so puffy with so much excess skin that I can barely open them. What procedure will be best? Blepharoplasty? Or is there something else like a brow lift that I would benefit from?
